San Diego (July 2018)


My spouse and I visited San Diego for five days in early July 2018. We arrived on the July 4 holiday and based ourselves at the Hilton in the Gaslamp District, which was a great location because there were lots of restaurants, bars, and shops on bustling Fifth Avenue just steps from the hotel. Our hotel also proved to be an excellent choice because we were able to view the Big Boom Fireworks over the San Diego Bay from the comfort of our suite! We did lots of touristy things, including visiting the USS Midway, Coronado Island (and the Hotel Del Coronado), Old Town, Balboa Park, taking a sailing cruise, riding on the hop on-hop off Old Town Trolley, and visiting the affluent suburb of La Jolla. We ate some decent meals, although the food wasn’t as good as we had envisioned. However, we did enjoy the world’s best Bloody Mary, an incredible concoction served in a pitcher topped with veggies, meats, cheeses, and a whole rotisserie chicken – something we will never forget!
